1.1This specification covers fiber-reinforced gypsum panels described in 1.1.1 – 1.1.6.
1.1.1Interior Fiber-Reinforced Gypsum Panels
are designed to be used for walls, ceilings, or partitions and affords a suitable surface to receive decoration.
1.1.2Water-Resistant Fiber-Reinforced Gypsum Backing Panels
are designed primarily to be used as a base for the application of ceramic or plastic tile on walls or ceilings. This product is also suitable for decoration.
1.1.3Exterior Fiber-Reinforced Gypsum Soffit Panels
are designed for use on exterior soffits and carport ceilings that are completely protected from contact with liquid water.
1.1.4Water-Resistant Exterior Fiber-Reinforced Gypsum Sheathing Panels
are designed for use as sheathing on buildings.
1.1.5Interior Fiber-Reinforced Gypsum Underlayment Panels
are designed for use as a base for application of finished flooring materials.
1.1.6Fiber-Reinforced Gypsum Board Panels
are designed for use in roofing systems.
1.2Specifications applicable to all fiber-reinforced gypsum panels are located in Sections 1 – 4 and 11 – 13 except as modified by applicable product sections. Specifications applicable to specific panels are located in the following sections:
